My name is Rafael Alves, known as Shinzo. I created the AnimeNew website in 2009 to offer news about anime, manga, and games directly from Japan.

We have the first teaser for the announced Konosuba spin-off ( KONOSUBA : An Explosion on This Wonderful World! ). According to reports, the series is animated by Studio Drive ( To Your Eternity ).

Check it out:

Thus, the direction is by Yuujirou Abe ( Kaguya-sama wa Kokurasetai ), the series composition by Makoto Uezu ( Fate/Grand Carnival ), and the character design by Kouichi Kikuta ( Blue Reflection Ray ).

Synopsis

The story follows Crimson Magic Clan members Megumin and Yunyun, who are at the top of their class, but they still have much to learn. Yunyun has begun learning advanced magic, but Megumin has followed a different path – the path of explosion magic! Despite being warned of its limited usefulness, Megumin believes that explosion magic is the path for her to become a great sorceress.

Akatsuki wrote the spin-off light novel from July 2014 to March 2019, published in Kadokawa's The Sneaker Web magazine, with illustrations by Kurone Mishima ( Rokudenashi Majutsu Koushi for Akashic Records ).

Finally, Yen Press licensed the manga adaptation in August and June of 2020.
